[Bible Trek: Luke] We Can Have Faith In Jesus

DAY 7 OF 7

We Can Have Faith in Jesus

“Faith is being sure of what we hope for. It is being certain of what we do not see.” Hebrews 11:1

Read the Bible

Today's verses tell us about some incredible miracles that Jesus did: he healed a sick man without even being in the same house, he brought a boy who had died back to life, and he made blind people see. People were amazed! But in verse 9 of Luke 7, we see that Jesus was surprised, too, by the army officer’s faith in him. The army officer truly believed that Jesus could heal his servant, and Jesus did, indeed, do a miracle!

Think about it

"The Lord's Spirit has come to me because he has chosen me to tell the good news to the poor. The Lord has sent me to announce freedom for prisoners, to give sight to the blind, to free everyone who suffers, and to say, ‘This is the year the Lord has chosen.'" Luke 4:18–19

Look back to Luke 4:18–19 and then read Luke 7:23 again. 

“And blessed is he who is not offended because of Me.” Luke 7:23

Do you think Jesus was doing what he said God had chosen him to do? Here’s another thought: Why do you think Jesus was surprised at the army officer’s faith? Look for the book of Hebrews in your Bible, or read Hebrews 11:1 at the beginning of this day. We can have faith in Jesus! We can be sure of what we hope for when we have faith that Jesus can do miracles!

Do something about it

Start your "Faith Book” with your family! Get a small notebook and start by writing down two or three things that you would like to see God do, that only God can do. Ask God to answer your prayer, and remember to pray every day as you believe that God can do the impossible. When you see God answering your prayer, write it down in your “Faith Book” and share the good news with someone else!

Talk to God

“God, thank you for sending Jesus to show us how powerful you are! Please give me faith to believe that you can do miracles!”

Day 6

About this Plan

[Bible Trek: Luke] We Can Have Faith In Jesus

Welcome to an exciting trek through Luke! For the next seven days, we’ll walk alongside a follower of Jesus named Luke. He wrote this book so that people would know what happened when Jesus was on earth. Luke also wrote the book of Acts in the Bible. We hope you enjoy this Bible adventure and learn to love and follow Jesus just like Luke!
